w251

Hello guys. Looking for help with my R class. Bought it two months ago and it keeps doing one thing. It has a intermittent power loss and no limp mode or faults on the engine or gearbox. Tryed carbon clean,no luck. Sometimes it does, when I try to accelerate, sometimes doing the same speed. For...

Hi all, I have an R350 W251 with NTG 2.5 (6 disc changer model) I have had the car over a year, bought 2nd hand, but the screen just went white one day! I can still control the head unit using the bezel buttons and steering wheel buttons, so radio stations and telephone still work. Also...

Hi forum! I wonder if someone knows some details regarding retrofitting a reversing camera on R, ML or GL (guess it's exactly the same)? On my R350 (2006) the chrome list in the back didn't have a pre-cut hole, therefore I bought a used chrome list which has this (think it was from a...

Hi Guys I have a stuttering OM642 under load, fault code (P2510-001, Y77/1 turbo actuator positioner signal fault) is pointing to the actuator failing on the turbo. My question is, can you purchase/replace the actuators or are we looking at a new turbo? If anyone has been down this route...

Hiya Folks, just a quick note with regard to the airsprings from Germany in the links below. I have had a pair on the rear for around 18 months now and a front pair for 12 months without issue. Price is good and so far the product seems to be of a good standard. Rear Airsprings Front...

Hello folks. Hoping for some guidance. Got my car a year past Feb and so far it stands me around £3k so I'm hoping to be able to fix this issue myself. The car went in to get a fair bit of work done last November to a local Merc. specialist. One of the jobs was replacement of all 6 glow...

Hi looking at the USA sites looks like the R and GL share the same part no. Looking for it in black. Thanks

hello all, I wonder if anyone knows a 'roundabout' figure for a torque converter replaced on an R320 cdi. Mine is a little vibry........... I am Bristol based if that makes a difference? Cheers D

Hi all, Yet again my poor old 2006 R320 Cdi is causing me some grief!!! Over the past month, the car has been struggling to start in a morning. Probably taking 5-6 seconds to start resulting in cloud of white smoke.. Once the car has been started for the day, it will start fine thereafter...

Hi, forum! I was thinking about maybe installing something for the kids. I have a '06 R-Class which has COMAND NTG2.5 (which I think eliminates the possibility to control video from COMAND). Anyhow if one was to install a 3-party product with inbuilt player (standalone), are there quality...

Hi MB Club - my R class ( 320 CDi 2006) is playing up with an annoying fault with the rain sensors. Whilst in rain sensor mode, they start to wipe (with rain !) and then immediately stop just away from their parked position. Then they are stuck unless I move the switch. If I turn it off, the...

Hi all, anyone help with a suspension problem ?? came out the other day to see the car leaning over to the right side rear, as if the air bag had gone.... Starting the car soon leveled it up, but now i notice the left side (front and rear) is around 1 1/2" higher than the right side, the car...

Hi all, This is a bit of a long post, I was hoping on some help whilst I think aloud! I'm now seriously considering either a W251 R Class or a X164 GL. Budget is to be confirmed but I'm thinking of upto £15k for an R or up to £25k for a GL Firstly, what I really would like is if anyone...

All, Since the R-Class facelift showed 7 seats, I have been thinking about changing the middle set of seats to have 3 rather than 2 seats (mine is 6 seats 2007 model). This would make my life easier as I quite often have 5 in the car, and therefore one always has to sit in the third row...
